ANTI-GST

Uses

Monoclonal Anti-Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) antibody has been used for use in western blot and ELISA. This product has also been used for dot blot.

General Description

Recombinant target proteins are often expressed as a fusion product with Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) tags using various expression vector constructs. Thus, antibodies directed against the GST tags of the recombinant constructs can facilitate the purification and study of target proteins. Monoclonal Anti-Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) antibody reacts with GST from Schistosoma japonicum. Furthermore, the product identifies native as well as denatured-reduced forms of purified GST and GST fusion proteins. The antibody does not detect GST derived from rat, rabbit, porcine and bovine liver or from human placenta.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of enzymes that play an important role in detoxification by catalyzing the conjugation of many hydrophobic and electrophilic compounds with reduced glutathione.
